Houndstooth Jacket for Kelly

Description

Swingy double-breasted coat. I didn’t make any changes to the pattern except I hand-sewed the lining in and made bound butttonholes instead of machine-made ones. I’m glad it is starting to cool off so my sister can enjoy her birthday present!

Material Notes
